Remember that time Musk expressed that he was in favor of free speech? Then he censored content on his platform for the Turkish government?

Yes, then he got a bunch of backlash and now he's doing the reverse. And people are losing their shit even more

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. People will find a reason to hate him.

I think he's just a hypocrite who will say anything and contradict it when it's better for him.

Have you ever seen his trans daughter who he disowned for being trans talk about him? He's not a good dude. For years when I first heard of him I was tricked too. Look into him some more man. He's a piece of shit.

Here's some reasons:

Taking credit for other people 's work. I don't think he actually founded any of the companies he owns besides the boring company. That hasn't done anything right? Lol

Having emotional temper tantrums where he tries to ruin people's lives, for example that diver he called a pedophile for no reason.

Again his hypocrisy around his political beliefs. For example how he champions "Free speech" but also will censor words like 'cis'. It's clear to me and many others that "free speech" to Elon just means people are free to say what Elon wants.

Personally I don't give a shit about Musk. I don't care about any celebrities but I try to not hate any of them because that's way too much attention I'm giving to someone who is so insignificant to me. I'm just always aware of them from being on these social media sites because there's always a legion of fans and haters. Maybe I'm really just complaining about social media and wish we were in the time of MySpace. Things were simple then and the internet was wild and untamed.

Weird how he's helping the far right in both cases.

complying with Erdogan
refusing to block fascists

Musk complies where his business lies. China, India, America, Europe...

Where there's Tesla there's Twitter regulation.

It bothers me that he is trying to protect nazis.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Weird how his free speech absolutism only applies to Nazis, huh?

[–] barsquid@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Elon needs racist tweets he can respond to with thinking face emojis, so he brought the Nazis back on.
